    Sometimes after pre-translating a document in Studio you want to translate and confirm draft (fuzzy) segments first, but currently there is no option to jump right to such segments. Of course, there are filters, but with them you are not be able to see...
  • Separate categories for new segments and MT translations

    • Under Community Review
    • 0 Comments
    Currently there is only the category "New/MT" which shows either segments that have been MT translated or segments that are still empty, depending on whether the project was configured to use machine translation or not. As it is, there's no way to tell...
  • set focus to (first) comment for active translation segment

    • Under Community Review
    • 0 Comments
    Hi, It would help a lot if the focus in the comment tab would match the line of the active segment in Editor. e.g. If I click segment 3, the (first) comment applying to segment 3 should be highlighted automatically. Right now, the comment that I...

    Dear SDL developers, Sometimes, when working in Studio and a term that I would expect to be displayed in the Term Recognition doesn't appear, I change to the Termbase Search window to search for it manually. Quite often, it then happens that I forget...

    Hi! I have received feedback that customers (e.g. pharmaceutical companies) struggle with multilingual documents and need copy/paste efforts which are tedious/error-prone. The file types range from MS Office to InDesign. The idea would be to...

    In my experience, users often mix up Project Settings and File-Options. The reason for that is simple - both trees of settings look very similar and it could be confusing for someone not familiar with the software. I would like to suggest introducing...

  • Arabic/Persian/Hebrew (and in general RTL languages) MT and NMT results

    • Under Community Review
    • 0 Comments
    A detail that seems to have been left out is how RTL languages like Arabic/Persian/Hebrew are displayed in the Translation Results when obtaining them from MT or NMT. When the content does not include text from any other Latin-based language, everything...
  • Enable the Escape key to close windows

    • 2 Comments
    When you open a window in Studio and wish to close it again because you don't need it after all it would be helpful if the Escape key could close it. For example, use Edit Comment to see a comment in the segment you are working on, then decide you just...
  • Studio should offer to insert group of tags in one go even if there are spaces between the tags

    • Under Community Review
    • 0 Comments
    I often translate files with segments that, in addition to text, contain a number of tags separated only by spaces. Due to the spaces, I have to insert the tags one at a time, manually adding the spaces between them. It would be a great help if Studio...
